Are Anger Issues Stealing Your Joy? (Anger Counseling Can Help)

don't let anger issues steal your joy

Anger counseling can help you tame your anger issues.

Anger is a healthy emotion, it's how we respond to anger that becomes unhealthy. Life is full of moments that promote anger and let’s face it -- that could be anything. Sometimes anger can look like screaming and yelling or plotting against someone and sometimes it can look like substance abuse. Anger can even present itself in our feelings and can be associated with anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Anger becomes a problem when it steals our joy. Some anger is normal. For example, frustration, hurt, annoyance, irritation and aggravation are all angry emotions and it's okay to feel those emotions. However,  when anger turns into destruction of property, hurting someone else, or hurting ourselves it is no longer healthy.

Benefits of Anger Counseling

Seeking anger counseling could be beneficial. Here are just a few of the benefits people can experience during anger counseling.

  1. You don’t have to walk around wanting to throat punch everyone. When anger starts to feel like a ball of fire, you feel ready to explode at any given moment. Anger counseling can give you an outlet to discuss the life situations that lead to angry feelings. Once you learn healthy outlets, that ball of fire becomes smaller. You don't have to feel keyed up all the time. Imagine walking around not feeling like you wanted to throat punch someone. Anger counseling can be that outlet to new ways of dealing with stress.
  2. You can be happy again. Anger counseling can teach you to let go of the things that make you angry and teaches you a set of skills you need to process your emotions in a healthy way. You learn to forgive yourself for all the anger situations and people in your life by finding the root cause of the anger. Oftentimes, the root cause of the anger comes from your childhood. From fear and shame based messages, you are not even aware you had. Anger specialists can help you learn about these messages that continue to present as anger.
  3. You can like yourself again Sometimes when anger is out of control, you don’t like the person you have become. Maybe it's because you talk harshly to your loved ones or you spend a lot of money fixing the things you broke in your explosion. Whatever the reason, you are not happy with the person who stares back at you in the mirror.

Don't Let Anger Issues Get the Best of You

Anger counseling can help you love the person in the mirror again. By processing, exploring, and practicing techniques you find a renewed sense of self. You get your pep back in your step and people start to like you too!
